Meet Our 2023 Lead Chinese, Mary

Mary, Lead Chinese

Age: 15

9th Grade, Yosemite Valley Charter School

I’m most excited to show how much I’ve improved in ballet.

I get to do something I love while making people happy. It’s an amazing feeling when you look out and see that the audience is having a great time.

Dance is a way to express my emotions. I tend to be a person who isn’t very vocal, so dance is a great outlet for me. I am athletic and love how dance combines both movement and music. Community has always been important to me, and MPBT‘s Nutcracker provides a community of great fun and enduring friendships. I look forward to participating in the Nutcracker for many years to come.
